Between the ages of 40 and 50, the number of taste buds decreases, and the rest begin to shrink,losing mass vital to their operation.  After age 60, you may begin to lose the ability to distinguish the taste of sweet, salty, sour, and bitter foods.

Unfortunately, yes. As we get older, our taste buds begin to fade and also begin to  disappear.
Hope this helps!

A naturally occurring oil co-distills with water to produce an oil/water distillate that is 20% oil by weight. If the molecular
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Partial pressure of oil = mole fraction of oil x total pressure

mole fraction of oil = mole of oil / mole of water + mole of oil

= mole of oil = mass of oil / molecular weight of oil

= 20 / 100 = .2

mole of water = 80 / 18

= 4.444

mole fraction of oil =  .2 / .2 + 4.444

= .2 / 4.644

Partial pressure of oil = mole fraction of oil x total pressure

= (.2 / 4.644 ) x 760 mm

= 32.73 mm Hg .

The first step in HNO3 production is the catalyzed oxidation of NH3. Without a catalyst, a different reaction predominates:
alexira [117]

Answer:

Kc = 6x10⁻⁶

Explanation:

For the reaction:

4NH₃(g) + 3O₂(g) ⇄ 2N₂(g) + 6H₂O(g)

Kc is defined as:

Kc =[N₂]² [H₂O]⁶ / [NH₃]⁴ [O₂]³

The equilibrium concentrations of the gases is -Because volume of the container is 1.00L-:

[N₂] = 2X = 1.96x10⁻³; <em>X = 9.8x10⁻⁴</em>

[H₂O] = 6X; 6ₓ9.8x10⁻⁴ = 5.88x10⁻³

[NH₃] = 0.0150M - 4X = 0.01108M

[O₂] = 0.0150M - 3X = 0.01206M

Replacing in Kc expression:

Kc =[1.96x10⁻³]² [5.88x10⁻³]⁶ / [0.01108M]⁴ [0.01206M]³

<h3>Kc = 6x10⁻⁶</h3>
